Nick and I had an awesome time in Victoria/Seattle. We were privy to a great tour of the HMCS Algonquin (sorry no pics are allow on a war ship), but I did capture this pic in the ward room of the Coors beer cans that change colour when it’s cold. I arrived in Victoria with a little chip on my shoulder after the news about the Coors billboards that claims their beer is “colder than the people in Toronto”.

I was already to wear my Maple Leafs jersey on board the airplane to show my pride, but I didn’t want to lug home a big hockey sweater. Besides, I was already over packed as it was… I just made the maximum allowed, 50lbs… right on the dot.
I tried to keep a journal of the trip, which turned out to short bullet form notes. Oh well, I tried right? Here’s how my trip went down:
CAUTION… mad pics after the jump… it’s true , I have no discretion…
Guess what! I finished my post on the trip to Victoria, but just realized I didn’t upload the pics to flickr. Will do so tonight, in the mean time, peep these pics from my iPhone.

The next day, we up up bright and early for our “Mayan Encounter” tour.
WARNING… very pic intensive after the jump!
So after the SDE was shown, the night started to wind down. My coordinater and her assistant was about ready to bounce (more on that later) and some of my guests were starting to leave. I/we missed saying goodbye to some cuz we were too busy getting things in order so my parents could help out with gathering my personal ish. Fast forward to the next morning 
We had a chance to meet up with a lot of our guests for breakfast, which was kinda fun… I was still reeling from the fact that we were actually married y’all! I was so anxious to start our day and get up outta there and head to the airport to begin our trek to Cancún. Nick and I have never been on an extended trip together… ever!
At the airport waiting to board the plane…
Why oh why am I so ghetto?
It has become a family tradition to do “the stance” for our family gatherings.
circa 1990ish
We went with “Overjoyed” by Stevie Wonder for everybody… My dad and I ultimately danced through the whole song, but Nick and his mom joined in at the second verse, and then the wedding party joined in during the last chorus.
… and Happy Canada Day to my fellow Canucks!
We are planning a surprise party for my pops and it’s slated to go down this Saturday July 4th. I’ve been planning the party for over a month and a half and I’m so glad we are almost there. My only main concern is the music. There’s going to be a mix of old and young at the party… pretty much the same range of people who attended my wedding, but on a smaller scale. We’re expecting 40+ peeps to the house. Anyways, we are gonna play music that my dad likes (read: old people music) I’m just playin’ he always smiles when I say that.
